An initiative has been launched by the El Paso Independent School District to have central office employees serve as substitute teachers. Approximately 255 salaried employees will be participating, including the Superintendent. This effort is intended to support campuses and reduce costs during the 2026-2027 school year.

The employees will be heading to classrooms to provide additional support. Further details about the initiative can be found through the source.

The participation of central office employees, including high-level administrators, aims to address needs at the district's campuses.
